Clean Place. Unfriendly staff

We enjoyed our stay here as far as the convenience and the Mountain View. However the staff was very unfriendly and unprofessional. Every time I asked for towels or wash cloths I was questioned on how many was in my room and they acted as if they didn’t want to help me. If you stay there you will want to avoid a lady named Angie. She is very rude and needs to be disciplined!

Property was well maintained. Staff were pleasant. The only negatives were the shipping containers in the parking lot blocked our view and the pool was closed. Otherwise, we would definitely recommend this hotel.

We were a bit hesitant to book since the only option left was a smoking room, but to our surprise, it didn’t smell at all or show any signs of being used as one. That was a huge relief! The bathroom was quite small, but the beds were comfortable and we slept well. The complimentary bag left on the table was a really nice touch and made us feel welcome. Even though we didn’t arrive on motorcycles, it was great to see that the hotel offers rags at the front desk to help clean off bikes. Coming from a biker family, I really appreciated that thoughtful gesture. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and we’d be happy to return.
